the power of scented candles: how scents affect our wellbeing
In recent years, scented candles have become increasingly popular, not just as a source of soft light but also as a means of creating a pleasant and relaxing environment. Whether it's to enhance your mood, promote relaxation, or create a cozy ambiance, scented candles have proven to be a powerful tool that can positively impact our mood and wellbeing.
Our sense of smell is a potent sense that directly influences our emotions and memories. When we detect a scent, it activates the olfactory system in our brain, which is directly linked to the limbic system. This part of the brain plays a crucial role in processing emotions, memories, and even arousal. As a result, certain fragrances can trigger powerful memories or emotions, explaining why scented candles can have such a significant impact on our mood and wellbeing.
At KOADE scented candles, we understand the power of scent and have created a range of scented candles that are designed to promote relaxation, enhance your mood, and help create a cozy atmosphere for you - no matter what time of day, day of the week or time of year.
Each KOADE scented candle is made using a blend of rapeseed, soy and coconut wax and high quality oils, blended in-house to create unique experiences.
One our scents is inspired by the smell of fresh vine tomatoes growing on a warm greenhouse in the months of summer. Ripe, rich fresh scents which can help to encourage relaxation and inspire rejuvenation. Perfect for everyone who really does want to bring the outside, in.
